In this paper the numerical solution of the minimal surface equation is investigated. The method is based on the finite element method (FEM). The minimal surface equation is strongly nonlinear. While we apply the FEM and Newton iteration method solving it, the global stiff matrix is varies as the iterations are proceeding and each of the iterations involves many complicated time consuming derivative calculations. In addition, the selection of the initial guess is very important to resolve the nonlinear problem. We appeal to a global method called numerical extension method in the whole iterative process and linearize the nonlinear finite element system using a simple iteration.
